Evangeline Lilly Plans to Quit Acting After “Lost” Ends

Posted by Ann

Lost star Evangeline Lilly hasn’t gotten any acting gigs lined up for when the show’s final season ends this year. Instead, she’s shocked fans by revealing that she plans to quit after the series is over.

Lilly says she wants to “drop off the radar”, and that she may not return to Hollywood.

Translation: she wants some time to herself, but she’ll be back one day.  She likes acting but doesn’t like the paparazzi and crazy fans that come with it, but isn’t totally ruling out a return.

She said:

“Acting is something I appreciate, and I think it’s been an amazing experience, but I’m not passionate about acting the way you probably should be to call yourself an actor.

I want to have some quiet space… and enjoy a little bit of normalcy again (before deciding what’s next).”

She says her first priority after giving up acting will be to take part in charity work in Rwanda.
